"Call for Artists: Submissions Sought for 2009-10"
2009-01-29 until 2009-03-15
Galerie La Centrale
Montreal, QB, CA Canada

Growing out of the feminist art movement and founded in 1973, La Centrale galerie Powerhouse is one of the oldest artist-run centers in Quebec. The center’s mandate expands on a history of feminist art practices and engages a broader spectrum of underrepresented artists and their initiatives within established art institutions. The gallery aims to provide a platform for contemporary art informed by feminist and gender theory, as well as intercultural and transdisciplinary practices. This involves networking and developing professional exchanges at the local, national and international levels. We promote the work of artists at all stages of their careers to allow for intergenerational dialogue. The programming and events at the gallery are a reflection of our members and their interests and involvements.
